Is there any way I can get Entourage to leave mail in my outbox until I decide to send it (send/receive)?

Select to Work Offline under Entourage in the Menu bar
Click to expand...

Or, just press the "Send Later" toolbar button, or select "Send Message
Later" from the "Message" menu.

Yes, there actually is. In your Entourage mail window, click on "Tools." Scroll down to "Send and Receive." In there, you can click on "Send All" and configure it to your perfection.

I'm having the same problem, I use Entourage for both my work and private email so I'd prefer to send them later when I can check all is ok, I have tried the "Tools." Scroll down to "Send and Receive." In there, you can click on "Send All" and configure it to your perfection" as cwilliams suggested, but I just can't seem to get it to wait, it still sends all email straight away, I can however use the send later option, that works fine, but in my dream state of sending email, I just click send.

This is a personal problem. :) Try putting Entourage into Work Offline. You
can hit send, but unless you select Connect it will just go to the outbox.

There is a handy script to toggle work offline.
